There's actually a pending lawsuit over this very issue, so I have a feeling we'll be hearing more about it in the future. Unfortunately, there probably isn't much you can do about it. I can only recommend the usual actions - file complaints with the Better Business Bureau and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and consider engaging an arbitration outfit like FairShake if you lost a significant amount of money and/or need the money immediately.
